WATER TO FOOD

Water To Food engages in the dissemination of the results achieved within the CWASI (Coping with water scarcity in a globalized world) project... Water consumption for food production accounts for 70% of the total freshwater withdrawal for human uses... The Water Footprint (WF) indicator, introduced in the early 2000s by Arjen Hoekstra, provides a tool to assess water use for food production in space and time, at different resolution scales. Our research develops upon the results from Hoekstra and advances the state of the art about the evaluation of Water Footprint in time and space for several crucial food products. All you need to know about it is collected in this section.
